Data Details:
The basemap polygons are 1998 Health Area boundaries. The green spaces (parks, cemetaries, etc.) were derived from US Census landmark shapefiles. The dataset was obtained from INFOSHARE (Community Studies of New York, Inc., NY) and analyzed by the Data Management, Statistics and Community Modeling (DSM) Core at the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health (CCCEH). The legend is classified in quantiles. The study area outline and demarcation line between Brooklyn/Queens were generated by the WE ACT GIS Mapping Specialist. The neighborhood names were defined by the United Hospital Fund (UHF), and are considered to be UHF Neighborhoods. Magnetic north is up.
